I can feel all the symptoms beginning to take over mu body again. Dr took me off my Abx until Sept. This way th Abx can't interfer with the test. Im going to get the Q-RiBb Lyme test.
Has anyone had to begin again. I've been sick all my life. To the point I thought I was alergic to Abx. as it turns out every time I took an Abx for flu/cold/virus I get worse. People thought I was just complaining.
Im really scared because just last Nov. I weighed 79 pounds. I finally got back up to 110 and now I'm back down to 105. I'm very depressed. As if I needed more of that.
The 2 tics in June were on the same day and the same leg..... The last thing I need is something for pain. I was on vicodin and finally got off of it due withdral symptoms 2011, I was taking the weakest dose and I did not want to raise the dose ect... H E L P.........

FYI I was diagnosed in 1999. I finally got to see a LLMD in March of 2000...

I'm just wondering if you could put on more tick repellent, if that's a relevant issue?

Hi TuTu for any and or new different strains of Lyme and any Co - infections. I do wear a repellent but these I'm learning are right outside my front door. Plus over the years Dr would take me off Abx simply to give my body a break.

I believe in getting as thoughtfully proactive as possible - figuring out how and where the tick exposures are, and thinking how to counteract.
If for example, right outside your front door, we had someone spray his acreage with the Orange Guard essential oil and saw no more ticks.
I'm not saying any solution is perfect, but think about what could be done and research it, then tackle it so you don't have to keep getting bit, and then tell others how to stay as safe as possible, given this whole new environment we all have to deal with.
